Luce Line Trail Wooden Bridge

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

The Luce Line Trail stretches 76.7 miles across Carver, Hennepin, McLeod, and Meeker counties, connecting rural Minnesota with urban Minneapolis. This rail trail has different surfaces along the way, including asphalt, crushed stone, and grass, and is open to biking, walking, running, horseback riding, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing. The trail passes through wetlands, wooded areas, lakes, and prairie remnants, with highlights like Otter Lake and Medicine Lake. The trail connects with other regional paths and provides scenic views, including the Minneapolis skyline. The Luce Line follows a former rail corridor with a rich history dating back to the early 1900s.

Twin Lake

Highlight • Lake

Twin Lake is a 21-acre lake in Golden Valley near Theodore Wirth Park. People swim, boat, fish, and watch nature there. A channel connects the lake to a wetland and Sweeney Lake. Twin Lake is deeper than expected for its size, with a deepest point of 56 feet. Plants grow mostly on the north end. An invasive plant called curlyleaf pondweed lives there too. The water quality is good because there is not much paved land nearby to make dirty runoff water flow into the lake when it rains.
